I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Klaviyo (Boston, MA) in Jul 2019
Interview
The best interview process I have gone through. The recruiters feel genuine and are really responsive. The process is really clear so you always know what to expect next and they even give you feedback on the code you submit, which is really thoughtful. 30 minute phone call, phone/in-person collaborative coding challenge, take home, on-site to meet team and algorithm challenge.
I know several engineers who work here and have technically grown so much and they all seem to love what they do here. I ended up not taking the offer, but it was a very tough decision.

ICF Codesignal, recruiter screen, and then final interview. Codesignal was easy as long as you prepped for it, there are many examples of ICFs online. Recruiter screen was normal. Final interview was not DSA related. Mostly related to the real experience of being a swe.
